FAQs

Is it a safe flight to Lukla?

Lukla Airport is one of the most dangerous airports in the world. However, more than 30 aircraft land at Lukla every day. During the high season, almost all of the 40,000 hikers fly to Lukla to visit the Everest region trek.

While it’s more dangerous statistically than a typical commercial airport, it is still pretty safe.

When it comes to safety, our focus is to get our customers on one of the first flights of the day. When you confirm the booking and send us your passport copies with a 20% advance payment, we will book the flight tickets immediately, so it is most important to send us this information quickly when you have made the deposit for the trip.

Due to the number of trekking groups we run in the Everest region, we get good priority with the airlines for our guests. In general, our groups get on either the first or the second group of flights going out each day during the peak season. We pick these flights because the weather tends to be much more stable and the visibility is better for landing first thing in the morning. Getting early flights is one of the key things we focus on to ensure our guests' safety and try to minimize delays in their itinerary’s programs.

Planning for Delays at Lukla

Lukla’s landing strip is short and it runs to the edge of a large cliff face, making the approach very challenging. The airstrip has a single possible approach path through the windy valley it overlooks, and only very small aircraft and helicopters can make the journey. Due to its position and elevation, weather conditions and visibility can change rapidly. This makes the flight a difficult one to schedule or predict. The airlines do not take chances with weather conditions and will return a flight to Kathmandu anywhere along its journey rather than risk an unsafe landing if conditions have changed since takeoff.

Delays with Lukla flights are very common. These can happen any time of year but are especially likely around the monsoon season (late May to early September). If your flight is delayed, we will reschedule you for the next possible flight. As conditions can change so rapidly, this may be very soon after your scheduled departure, or as much as a few days later – it is very difficult to predict. This can be pretty frustrating but is simply part of the journey to the Everest region. We strongly recommend you add at least a day or two to the end of your trip to give yourself some flexibility in the case of any delays.

Extra days should always be scheduled at the end of the trip. This gives you flexibility with your trekking itinerary in case of any weather delays. Batter to add to your trip itinerary for at least two or three days, and those days, if you get a flight on time, can be used for city tours, river rafting, jungle safari tours, and a variety of other activities.

These are good guidelines and, in our experience, are sufficient nearly all of the time, but at the end of the day, it’s up to the weather.

What About Luggage Delays at Lukla?

It’s not common, but it is possible that your luggage will be shifted to another flight or delayed by the airline. The most important thing is to have all of your valuables and anything else you might need in an emergency, such as prescription medication, in your carry-on. Luggage delays or bags misplaced by the airline are out of our control, but we will do our best to get your gear to you on the trail.

How Much Does the Lukla Helicopter Cost

If you do opt for a helicopter, you can expect to pay around $400 to $600 extra per person. Helicopter rates vary as a rule and increase when demand increases. That means the helicopter will be the most expensive when everyone needs one and the cheapest on nice sunny days when the flights are running normally. The rates given by our team in Kathmandu may not always match what is offered locally on the mountain. If you’re waiting for a flight back to Kathmandu, it can be worth asking at the local office in Lukla as well. The extra seats on a flight are basically a wasted asset, so prices are always changing as they’re trying to fill every seat on every flight.

 

What are the options to get back to Kathmandu when the Lukla flights are canceled?

The best option is just to add extra days to your trip and wait for clear weather, but if you’re stuck in Lukla, you will probably find yourself looking into other options as well.

Hike out to Salleri: It’s two long days of hiking from Lukla to Salleri, from where it is possible to get a jeep to Kathmandu, a 10 to 14-hour ride on pretty rough roads.

If helicopters are limited in availability, they may only be available to shuttle guests to Phaplu, which is an airstrip lower in the valley close to Salleri. We can arrange a jeep from Phaplu to Kathmandu. Be prepared for a 10 to 14-hour journey on rough roads. If you have extra time in Nepal, you might be better off waiting an extra day at Lukla for the weather to clear.

Helicopter to Surkhe: Surkhe is just a small village below Lukla where helicopters sometimes land as the visibility is better. It’s about an hour's hike up to Lukla from Surke.

Will Travel Insurance Cover Lukla Flight Delays?

Some policies will cover "trip interruption" that is a result of a rescheduled or canceled flight and will reimburse you for missed international connections or extra travel expenses. Mountain Magic Treks can provide the required documents for your insurance company in case you need to make a claim. We suggest you call your insurance company and see exactly what they cover before you arrive in Nepal.

 

Why Travel To Lukla With Mountain Magic Treks?

Getting to Lukla can be fairly simple, or it can be a real headache with several days of delays in the case of bad weather. We will do our best to make the journey as smooth as possible either way. If you are thinking of doing the trek with Mountain Magic Treks, or have already booked, you can be assured of several things.

We will book your Lukla flight before you arrive and try to get you on the first or second batch of flights. The earlier you book and send us your passport, the more likely you will have an early flight.

If your flight is delayed or canceled, we have higher priority than independent trekkers or independent guides when it comes to rebooking. This is an important reason to book with an established tour company that can offer the support you need.

We have an office in Kathmandu and one of our staff will be at the airport in Kathmandu during periods of flight delays working to make sure everything is taken care of and you’re kept as up to date as possible on the situation.

We want you to have a great trek and will do our best to ensure a smooth, safe, and timely journey to Lukla.

How do I spend a day on daily trekking?

Trekking depends upon your chosen areas if it’s on mainstream trekking routes like Annapurna, Everest, and Langtang you will be spending overnight in a comfortable nice, and cozy lodge or guesthouse. A normal day on trek starts with tea and breakfast around 6: Am and then pack your bags for the day walks where larger bags are carried by our porters or pack animals (Yaks). While you carry your light day pack with necessary items for the day as the trek starts follow the lead Guide to a lunch stop for an hour or more and then walk to our designated overnight halt in lodge or camping.

How leads the trip and they are well trained and experienced?

No doubt about it, all our guides are export and professional in this line of the job with more than decades of experience leading worldwide customers showing wonders of the Himalayas with full knowledge in flora-fauna, local culture, and history with the traditional life of the villagers including eco-tourism and responsible tourism caring, preserving and respecting local culture and saving the pristine environment from destruction. All our guides and field staff are well trained with medical knowledge and can help you when an emergency arises with proper care and assurance and will treat you with medical know-how. If it’s serious they are well equipped to call for helicopter services for emergency evacuation.

How is the meal in the Tea-House and lodge on trekking routes?

The meals that we serve on trekking routes, lodges, or Tea-House will be hygienic as our cook and kitchen are well versed in hygiene and ecotourism in lodges we have cooked to supervise and maintain the food quality as well. Food can vary depending upon the season and place according to its availability during the right season. Normally, the food menu has Nepali Dal Bhat (rice & lentil soup) with mild vegetable curry, fried rice, noodles, and soups of great variation. In some places, Continental foods like Has Brown Potato, pieces of bread, Pan Cakes, Boiled Vegetables, Stew, Pizza, Cinnamon rolls, cakes, pies, etc. But as you go higher the food menu is very limited due to the harsh cold climate and the altitude.

Information about the trip

Travel Insurance 

Mountain Magic Treks suggests you to get travel insurance that covers all the added expenses that might result due to various health issues, injuries or accidents (together with the air ambulance, helicopter rescue, and other treatment costs). Also, make sure that your insurance policy covers all extra activities that you are planning to accomplish throughout your stay in Nepal. In addition to this, the policy should also cover death, misplaced luggage, theft and liability, cancellations, medical treatment (counting hospital charges, cost of the medicine, doctor’s fees) as well as repatriation cost. Most of the days while trekking in Nepal takes you above an altitude of 3000m, it is kindly requested to ensure that your insurance policy covers treks that go over 4000m. To buying an insurance is highly recommended.

Health, experience, and fitness:

Trekking in Nepal is physically tougher in some of the regions. However, no previous trekking experienced is required but if you have, it is a great plus point. Trekking in Nepal is a non-technical walk. The highest height you would reach on your trip is 5,545m (Kalapatthar) from sea level. The walk involves lots of ups and downhill takes you through local villages, farming lands, terraces, and riverside but as long as you have a strength of walking for 5 to 5 hours a day, you are qualified for the trek. However, you should be having moderate health and fitness. We strongly suggest travelers consult with your medical doctor before traveling and do the regular checkup of your health and report us while booking a trip with us.

A part of the health and fitness, the participant must be having a positive attitude and strong determination for the successful trip.

Altitude Information

AMS (Acute Mountain Sickness) is a serious issue. It is the result of the failure of the body to adapt to high altitude and can affect anyone, regardless of age or fitness. It usually occurs above 2,500m and the likelihood of being affected increases as you ascend. The way to reduce the effects of altitude is to ascend slowly, 300 meters per day above 3,000 meters until you have acclimatized. Poor acclimatization results in a headache, nausea, sleeplessness, difficulty breathing and swelling of fingers and glands. The only cure for AMS is to descend to a lower altitude and your guide’s decision on this matter is final.

Although our routes are carefully planned to allow for proper acclimatization you may feel some effects of altitude for the first few days or at higher altitudes. Breathlessness, lethargy and mild headaches are not uncommon and generally decrease as your body adjusts. Maintaining adequate fluid intake is essential. Please advise your guide if you feel more severe symptoms and do not medicate yourself without discussing it with them first.

Drinking water

Mountain Magic Treks provides unlimited chlorine/lodine treated water the trek. All tea houses have mineral water and boiled water for trekkers upon additional cost. We discourage the purchase of mineral water and bottled water while on the trek as plastic bottles and difficult to dispose of and have become an environmental problem.

Did the EBC trek in 2023. Rewati is a great guide and has excellent communication skills. He is very caring, professional and has a great knowledge of the area including all the mountains names, heights, history of the areas etc. He is very familiarised with many people in the lodges, trek and porters. He also makes sure you are safe an comfortable at all times as well as he makes sure you are drinking enough water, eating well and make sure you are doing well throughout the trek. I highly recommend Rewati and his company.

An awesome experience!

We had the chance to have Rewati as a guide for the EBC trek. He was very efficient, had a lot to explain about the nature and the history along the trek and was very friendly! We ended up liking him so much that we decided to continue for another trek right after, the Annapurna base camp trek. Very good experience, I definitely recommend him!

Amazing experience to EBC!

Phurba is a very experience guide, helpful, friendly and always attentive to clients needs. We stayed in some of the best lodges on the way to EBC and our porter was always the first to arrive and arrange the better rooms.

Phurba advises, briefings and adjustments on route were essential to adapt to acclimatization and make the trek to EBC and incredible and successful trip.

Amazing Everest Base Camp Trek with Rewati

I was extremely pleased with the tour and the way it was organized. The manager Rewati was very professional, responsive and flexible. Everything was taken care of, from getting picked up from the airport on day one, to getting dropped off on the day I left. 

My guide Rewati was just heaven sent. I've never met anyone more kind and humble. He has great knowledge of the region, has killer photography skills :) and just is an absolute pleasure to be around. As a female solo traveler I never felt uncomfortable or awkward around him even though it was only the two of us travelling. He goes over and beyond to make sure that you're happy and looked after. I will most definitely go back to Nepal for further travels and I'll make absolutely sure he's my guide again as I consider him family now. Highly recommend to my friend for use this company do trekking   
Again I will do trekking with Rewati from Mountain Magic Trek .Thanks

He is very caring, professional and has a great knowledge of the area including all the mountains names, heights, history of the areas etc. He is very familiarised with many people in the lodges, trek and porters.
